many factors may influence the efficiency of somatic embryogenesis. this capability may be differ with regard to media compositions, genotype, tissue, organ ontology and the stage of differentiation. the effects of five salicylic acid concentrations (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mm) on different stages of carrot somatic embryogenesis were studied using petiole and root secondary phloem explants as sta...

The present study was conducted in two different experiments based on complete randomized design to evaluate the effects of calcium (0, 1, 2, 4 mM) and magnesium (0, 1.02., 2.04, 4.08 mM) on carrot petiole somatic embryogenesis in B5 medium. A difference on somatic embryogenesis was observed among different levels of calcium and magnesium. The number of globular embryos in medium with low magne...

Somatic embryogenesis is the process by which somatic cells are induced into an embryogenic state, followed by differentiation into embryos. Somatic embryogenesis, in addition to being a method of propagation, can serve as an experimental tool for research into plant embryo development. This is a review of the current literature on in vitro plant somatic embryogenesis and the molecular advances...

this study involves in vitro androgenesis of zea maysl. via anther culture. combination of two embryoinduction media (imss & ypm) in presence of different colchicine concentrations (0, 100, 200, 250, 300and 400 mg/l ) in the pretreatment medium (iml) andpretreatment duration (0, 3, 6 and 9 days) in twogenotypes (dh5×dh7 and eth-m82) were tested.after colchicine pretreatment, anthers were tr...

Evening primrose (Oenothera biennis L.) is a wild flower with high and valuable oil content. High seedshattering, indeterminate inflorescence and heterogeneous germination limit the commercial cultivation ofthis plant. Besides agronomical research, breeding programs can also remedy the above mentioned problems.Since traditional breeding methods take a long time, using techniqu...

somatic embryogenesis is a new approache to plant mass in vitro propagation. this method influences by elements and their components in medium. in order to investigate the effects of different media and it,s role on somatic embryogenesis of carrot, a cbd experiment with four replications (including 12 treatments) was conducted. to do this, carrot petioles (with 1 cm dimension) in induction phas...

one of the important methods of plant propagation in large scale so as genetic manipulation and artificial seed production is somatic embryogenesis technique. the obtained results from this methods related to different factors including condition of culture medium. therefore, the aim of this study conduction were determining the role of molybdenum during carrot petiole somatic embryogenesis. at...

this study was carried out to investigate the morphological and anatomical aspects of somatic embryogenesis in date palm. lateral bud and shoot tip explants excised from young offshoots were cultured on ms medium with 2,4-d. somatic embryogenesis was in-duced by transferring the calli produced on the same medium without hormones. micro-tome sectioning of paraffin-embedded specimens was carried ...
